"Go home now."<br /><br />Never happens.<br /><br />We tried to give up the New Year's anniversary and black tie extravaganza. Made it two years. I missed it.Easy and Elegant Lifehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09951907004091808223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487945587083638331.post-84369437787455277972009-04-28T08:51:00.000-05:002009-04-28T08:51:00.000-05:00We used to have a huge party on Christmas night.

It was for people who didn't have families, or whose children were grown, or who were our ages and wanted to get away from their families. All ages from 8 to 80. When we moved from the "big house" we finally stopped it, but some people showed up on Christmas night anyway.Pigtown-Designhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13775512940294150252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487945587083638331.post-2873869402410138312009-04-28T07:09:00.000-05:002009-04-28T07:09:00.000-05:00Ah great memories here Mrs. B!

However, all the previous &#39;attendees&#39; whinged &amp; whined for so long, I&#39;ve thrown caution to the wind &amp; started it up again. And much to my delight, second time around it&#39;s even better! Might have something to do with the cailbre of husbands I reckon! Take a gamble I say &amp; give it another whirl.<br />Millie ^_^Milliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15408461724832141163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487945587083638331.post-604758277899559102009-04-28T03:35:00.000-05:002009-04-28T03:35:00.000-05:00I must admit, that mr. &amp; mrs. pve hosted the a...I must admit, that mr. &amp; mrs. pve hosted the annual new year&#39;s day open house to comb the &quot;hair on the dog&quot; so to speak. Mind you, all before we had a dog, let alone no-necked monsters. The guest book remains on the shelf and all a distant memory. I have a wonderful photo of me, pregant with twins. I do believe the PRF ended with a bing and a bang.
